Bold Business for Artists: The Video & PDF Guide to a Modern-Day Art Career

Ah, Confusion. There’s so many metaphors for it. It’s like that giant mass of colorful wires behind your TV. It’s trying to figure out a subway system in a foreign country. It’s explaining a David Lynch film to your grandparents.

And most unnerving of all, Confusion is trying to figure out how to navigate the jungle that is the online business world.

But trying to find your way through the online business world is only a jungle at first.

Once I figured this out, I knew I had to make a roadmap someday so that others wouldn’t have to suffer unnecessarily. And better yet - figuring this system out made it so that artists could spend less time on marketing art and more time on making art.

So how exactly do you spend less time on marketing art so that you can spend more time on making art?

By having a solid digital strategy.

The present and the future of marketing is largely digital, so I created a training out of the lack of instruction that's currently out there helping artists with digital marketing and business development. (And it's reaaady!)

Sure, there's training out there for online marketing, but a lot of it feels very 'bro marketing'. (I actually made a lively video about bro marketing right here.) You've seen it before - it's mostly dudes just touting their wealthy lifestyle proclaiming that they've unlocked a 5 step secret to success, all the while not bringing any true value to the marketplace. But many of us don't resonate with that, and value-centered training developed specifically with artists in mind - in a way that's fun to follow along - just didn't exist. Until now:

I started noticing that the hardest part about online business - by FAR - is avoiding all of the shiny objects that could derail your progress. Not to say that there’s only one track to success - there’s plenty of ways. But hopping from track to track will definitely not get you anywhere fast.

The method that I’ve found works best for me and many, many others is picking ONE goal at a time, and then committing to ONE path to get to that goal. (It sounds simple enough, but it's really quite difficult for us squirrels.)

But yet, thanks to the infinitely vast array of opportunities & options that the internet provides us, how do you even figure out which goal is the most important?

Should you start an ecommerce store or focus on marketing an existing one first? Should you have a podcast and interview inspirational artists on it? Should you try to grow your email list? Your Instagram? Your laundry list of things to do?

I get how confusing all of this is. None of those things are just meaningless shiny objects that don’t deserve your attention.

ALL of those things listed above would be great for expanding your online business. The tough part is choosing which ONE to focus on at a time, since chances are - you’re a one-person show with minimal time & funding, and plus - you still have to sleep occasionally.

Since most of your time should be spent MAKING art, and not MARKETING art, it's important that you don't waste your time and energy trying out a bunch of different growth strategies that may or may not work for you.

The Guide to a Modern-Day Art Career is a simple, free, and powerfully potent way to zero in on your business & marketing goals. Best of all - IT SAVES YOU TIME. Get it right here:

So there’s three parts to the whole guide and there’s one video for each: Super Clarity, Brainy Business, and Marketing: Our Digital Destiny. (I love alliteration.)

All three of these parts assist you in your leap from artist to creative entrepreneur that does consistent business online. This is how:

Super Clarity:

How to avoid the many shiny objects in BusinessLand and stay focused on your mission

Brainy Business:

Get your business ducks in a row with a heavy focus on good ol' business models

Marketing: Our Digital Destiny:

Some solid strategy on the ultimate way to grow for both the present and the future

So after we do the mindset work of avoiding shiny objects, there’s some business that needs to be addressed; namely, laying out the foundation so that you know which tasks & projects to focus on next.

And once your mindset is clear and your business foundation is laid, it’s time to dive deep into marketing!

Marketing can happen in lots of different ways, and it’s absolutely necessary to grow your business. And the world of business is incredibly digital now, so the third part of this guide goes over marketing concepts and strategies with all of that in mind.

So there we have it - free, powerful training for artists like you who want to assimilate into the digital world. :)
